A modular tandem synthesis of 2-carboxybenzofurans from 2-gem-dibromovinylphenols has been established based on a sequence of Cu-catalyzed intramolecular C-O coupling and Mo(CO)6-mediated intermolecular carbonylation reactions. This protocol allowed one-step access to a broad variety of functionalized benzofuran-2-carboxylic acids, esters, and amides in good to excellent yields under Pd- and CO gas-free conditions.

TBAI/TBHP mediated oxidative cross coupling of phenols and carboxylic acids with ketones has been reported under metal-free, base free, solvent free conditions enabling environmentally benign synthesis of aryloxyketones, acyloxy ketones and benzofurans. Phenoxyketones and acyloxylcarbonyl compounds were synthesized in good to high yields, where as benzofurans were synthesized in moderate yields. This method is operationally simple, works under mild conditions, using commercially available as well as inexpensive TBAI and an oxidant TBHP.
